Can I use the 240Gb from a MBA to speed up my Mac Mini
Hi,
what’s the latest on this? I have a MacBook Air in which I am planning to install a larger flash storage. Currently 240Gb, upgrading to the 480Gb (OWC Aura Pro X 480GB probably).
Can I use the 240Gb that comes out to speed up the slow Mac Mini that only has 4Gb RAM soldered on?
I understand it is not that easy, but possible with the right cable. Does it exist by now (December 2018) and what should I be looking for?
Would love to keep the current 500Gb HD as a second disk. The 240Gb flash then mostly for speeding up the MacMini.
Bu iyi bir soru mu?

We need to know the exact models on each machine.

Review this great guide The Ultimate Guide to Apple’s Proprietary SSDs. Compare your systems SSD's to see if they are compatible.

I now understand I can not improve the 4Gb of RAM in my Mac Mini 7,1 (late 2014). Improving the speed with an internal faster 'hard disk' might give at best 15% improvement because of a bottle neck in the hardware. I will just upgrade my MacBook Air (early 2015) to 480Gb and use the 280Gb in some kind that makes it into external USB 3.0 storage.
